Makura Miracle Natural Buckwheat Pillow - Traditional and Neck Size Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm very pleased with this pillow. I've been looking for a buckwheat pillow, but wasn't willing to spend a huge amount on one. While the quality of the fifty-five dollar (or more) versions are, I'm sure, better than this, the quality of this pillow is more than acceptable. I happened to get it on a price dip (less than eighteen dollars) which makes it an excellent value.

The size is a bit smaller than a regular pillow. Dimensions are just shy of 20 by 14. I first thought that would be a problem, but it turned out to be a non-issue.

The pillow comes with an inexpensive case - I left that on, but put everything inside another pillow case of better quality. The seams are tight - no leakage of hulls. There is no zipper to open up the pillow to add or remove hulls. I'm pleased with the amount of fill but, should I want to add more later, putting in a zipper should be easy (don't need to worry about crooked seams - it's a pillow!)

The fill amount gives the pillow about 2.5 inches of height when laid uniformly flat (rough measurement). I like a little higher pillow, so I took a regular pillow that was flattened out, put the buckwheat one on top, and then put both into a queen size pillow case. Works great - get the height I need, the buckwheat conforms to my neck, and it's a wee bit softer than using just the buckwheat alone.

Buckwheat pillows are one of those love it or hate it propositions. I happen to love how it feels - stops neck pain and allows for a very restful sleep. Others, however, can't stand the firmer feel of the pillow. If you can get this during a price dip, it's a great way to see if you like the feel of buckwheat. If yes, this may be all the pillow you need, or you may want to step up to the more expensive versions. If not, you've not wasted a bunch of money.

At a low price this is a five-star product. Not worth buying, however, unless the price is half as much (or lower) than the premium brands.
